Plot summary

The story is set in Rome in 1900. In a seedy area of the city, "borgataro" Nino Patroni, called in Roman dialect "Er Più of Borgo Santo Spirito", seeks to marry a fellow rogue with his sister. Nino also tries to fix himself with the beautiful turbines Rosa, but the girl is disputed by the protagonist with the squire Augustarello, leader of a gang of thugs in the village adverse to that of Nino. After moments of respite and battles with stab wounds, Nino manages to make peace with the family of Augustarello; as a matter of fact, after Nino wounded in a duel, Augustarello accidentally killes himself with his stab.
Nino, in view of the wedding, makes also peace with the police officer who arrests him often because of his fights. However, just when the protagonist and Rose are just married, Nino is betrayed and killed by a coward commonly called "the Chinese", a slimy, cowardly and impostor, who is always taunted by Nino and his band.
